Chapter 71
“Really? That’s really nice of him.”
“Yeah, rumor has it that Josiah is cold and ruthless but he is simply indifferent to strangers, He‘s a sweetheart when it comes to his lover.“
“Yena Llyod is such a lucky girl.” “I doubt it. We don’t even know if she’s going to wake up.” “You have a point.” The two nurses were gossiping and Nia’s ears pricked up at the mention of Josiah’s name. Meredith had told her over and over again that Josiah was not her father but Nia did not believe her. Nia wanted to ask Josiah face to face. When her grandmother went to pay the medical bills, Nia sneaked out of the ward and headed toward the lift.
But because she was terribly ill, Nia started panting and gasping for air. One of the family members of a patient noticed Nia on the floor and asked concernedly,” Darling, are you okay?

That day, Meredith hid behind her mother and snuck out her head to take glimpses at him. When Josiah noticed her, like Nia, Meredith flashed a wide grin at him and greeted, “Josiah…”
The more he looked at Nia, the more he thought that Nia looked like Meredith. Even the way they smile was the same.
But the more they looked alike, the more Josiah was infuriated. It was as if Nia’s presence was a reminder that he was being cheated on by Meredith. Josiah walked toward Nia, looked down at her, and hissed, “Child, did your mom send you here to annoy me?”
The smile on Nia’s face slowly faded as she shook her head. “Uncle, my name is Nia, not ‘child’.
